What is the monthly income allowance to receive care?

Houseplant102 Jan 2018
Are you asking about the monthly patient trust account? The total monthly cost to live in a nursing home? The $2,000.00 maximum resource when applying for Medicaid if you're single? The $3,000.00 limit if you're married? Medicaid has SO many things to figure out. Interested in your question, just not sure what information your asking about the process.

How much income you can receive and still be eligible for Medicaid is very different if there is a spouse involved. You can easily look these numbers up for your state, using Google.

Also, if a person makes "too much" income but not enough to cover medical expenses, there are ways to arrange the finances to qualify.

An attorney specializing in Elder Law can be very helpful in applying for Medicaid.

Jay, not sure what you are asking. Do you mean how much does Medicaid help pay for care of a love one?
